Temporal Trends in Prenatal Risk Factors for the Development of Infantile Hemangiomas

摘要

Background/ObjectivesSpecific maternal risk factors have recently been identified in the development of infantile hemangiomas (IH), including gestational diabetes (GDM), maternal anti-hypertensive medication use and/or gestational hypertension (GHTN), maternal progesterone use, and artificial reproductive technologies (ART). We sought to explore the change in incidence of these risk factors over time, and determine their association with the increased incidence of hemangiomas over 35 years, as previously reported.
